Once Upon a Time goes under the sea on its Nov. 3 episode with the introduction of Ariel (aka the Little Mermaid), her strapping beau Prince Eric and Ursula the wicked sea witch.

The story finds Ariel (JoAnna Garcia Swisher, who will appear in a handful of episodes) rescuing one of the ABC fantasy’s regular characters before experiencing her own adventure, which incorporates elements from the 1989 animated Disney classic. “Once we realized we were going to Neverland, it felt like the perfect place to see Ariel,” says executive producer Edward Kitsis. Fans should look for winks at some of the movie’s iconic moments, such as a gag with a fork that nods to the clumsy dinner scene, says ­executive producer Adam Horowitz.

As for speculation that Lana Parrilla’s Evil Queen will transform into Ariel’s eight-legged nemesis, Kitsis hints, “In a world where our crocodile turns out to be Rumplestiltskin, you never know what might happen.” Holy mackerel!

Excellent! Thanks for sharing! I wasn’t holding my breath for an official glance at her until Oct! It’s also nice to have a first glimpse of Prince Eric and have a serious hint that Regina could be Ursula! I wonder which of our main characters that Ariel will rescue; my guess is Snow White after the pics that Ginny tweeted of herself and Joanna Garcia. Here is a bigger image, though not high quality.

Here’s a slightly higher resolution image.

Gil looks great in the Eric getup! Wish they’d given us a bigger pic coz that would be an awesome shot of Ariel’s costume if we could see it properly.

“Once we realized we were going to Neverland, it felt like the perfect place to see Ariel,” says executive producer Edward Kitsis.

And yet so far we know nothing about her position or status in NL, though we know of her being in SB present day, and FTL past, (gonna guess that the regular she saves is Snow, judging on Ginny’s pics, and I doubt Snow’s ever been to NL before, and am also assuming Eric’s in FTL).

I need this scene in my life immediately, if not sooner!!!

I knew it! I called it. We were going to see Ariel 🙂 Hope a Hi-Res pops up soon of these pics.

TLM came out when I was 3 and my inner 3yr old is dying of happiness. Still can’t figure out why she’s in SB all of sudden…

I think Ursula may still be her own separate character (She’s iconic) but Regina will take on an Ursula like role within the episode.

Or Regina kills Ursula and takes her role. Kind of like Rumple with Cinderella’s fairy godmother.

Probably.  I haven’t seen a casting announcement for Ursula and aren’t they already filming 2×06 or finishing?
